description
When writing titles in a plain text document, a common convention is to use
repeated punctuation characters to draw lines under (and sometimes over) the
title text.  This plugin helps maintain those title lines more easily, and
it provides support for standalone horizontal lines as well.

Titles are marked up in a manner compatible with reStructuredText[1], and the
various heading levels are chosen to coincide with the Sphinx[2] project's
conventions as follows::

    ##############
    Part (level 9)
    ##############

    *****************
    Chapter (level 0)
    *****************

    Section (level 1)
    =================

    Subsection (level 2)
    --------------------

    Subsubsection (level 3)
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Paragraph (level 4)
    """""""""""""""""""

    Level-5 heading
    '''''''''''''''

Extline provides methods for adding these lines, adjusting them to fit as the
section names changes, and for converting one level to another.

extline-0.2.1.zip 0.2.1 2023-05-07 7.0 Michael Henry - Fix line length for titles with multi-byte characters.  The previously used
  `len(title)` returned the size in bytes rather than logical characters,
  causing overly long line lengths for multi-byte characters.

- Allow multi-byte characters for "horizontal line update".
